Migrating from Twilio & Plivo

Why Choose CarrierX FlexML?

CarrierX FlexML offers several key advantages for developers looking to build or migrate telephony applications. While Twilio and Plivo provide similar functionality, FlexML includes unique features that may better suit your specific needs:

Enhanced XML Capabilities: FlexML provides exclusive verbs like Amd (for answering machine detection directly through XML), Override, Store, and File that aren't available in TwiML or Plivo XML. These additions give you more programmatic control over call flows within the markup language itself rather than requiring separate API calls.

Flexible Call Control: With both Pause and Wait verbs available, FlexML gives developers more precise options for controlling timing within call flows compared to its competitors.

Seamless Migration Path: The structural similarities between FlexML, TwiML, and Plivo XML make migration straightforward. Most verbs have direct counterparts, requiring only minor modifications to attributes rather than complete rewrites of your application logic.

Unified Approach: CarrierX delivers consistent implementation across its feature set, with comprehensive documentation detailing the exact differences between platforms to simplify the transition process.

Consider CarrierX FlexML if you're looking for enhanced control over call flows while maintaining the familiar XML-based approach you've used with other telephony services. Our migration guides provide step-by-step instructions to help you make the transition with minimal disruption to your existing applications.
